K&M neck trimmer question

[Wellington]

Hey guys, I am confused. Will any shell holder work in the K&M shell holder retainer? also will the Sinclair mandrels fit the trimmer? Trying to wade through this neck turning and trying to get a good but reasonably priced setup.

I use the Lee holders. Never tried any others.

I believe it works with Lee loader type only.

I think I have a Sinclair mandrel, if you don’t have an answer today I’ll investigate when I get home.

Lee priming tool shellholders- not regular shellholders

These guys with the flat bottoms.

The K&M turning mandrels are .343 diameter which is not the same as a Sinclair mandrel with .375 diameter.

The K&M expander insert is .312 diameter.

Don't mix and match expanders and cuter mandrels... Cost me $$ to find this out.
Pma is what i bought. Expander and mandrel work right & tight together.
Didn't work with k&m expander.
I have a press adapter k&m sells ...
In my junk drawer now.....
